There are a couple of hits on it on google with various people having
the same problem, I didn't find much answers but it appears that the
hardcoded limit is somewhere between 256-512kilobyte?
man spamc

  -s max_size, --max-size=max_size
            Set the maximum message size which will be sent to spamd -- any 
bigger
than this threshold and the message will be returned unprocessed (default: 500
KB).  If spamc gets handed a message bigger
            than this, it won't be passed to spamd.  The maximum message size is
256 MB.


I do not use spamd/spamc. But the perl module of spamassassin.

So is there no way to get around this?
Hmm. I didn't think SA had a limit internally. Normally, you utilize a limit on spamc (-s/--max-size) or in procmail such as * < 524288.

But if you call SA directly as an API, I don't think there is a limit. You might want to post this on the dev list.

A quick check and I couldn't find anything in the code or docs but I didn't look exhaustively.
